'Eva Longoria stars in this new comedy about Ana Sofia, a sizzling TV superstar, and her lively family of cast and crew all competing to steal the spotlight.
'When the cameras turn off, the drama turns up as Ana battles pesky network execs, drunken scriptwriters, narcissistic co-stars and an unfortunately familiar new on-screen love interest.'

Eva is relishing working behind the scenes in a leadership role.
'As an actor you don't have a lot of control of the final product,' she told Parade. 'I think, I don't like leaving this to chance or in the hands of somebody else.
'So becoming a director and a producer was just my evil ploy to control the results of my performances.'
